For the purposes of this chapter the following definitions shall apply:
(1) "Abandonment." The letting go of, or "vacating" of, public interest in a property. After a street or right-of-way is abandoned, the public no longer has a right to use the property for access.

(3) "Right-of-way." The area dedicated for public use as a street or alley whether developed or undeveloped.
(4) "Street." Any public street or alley, including right-of-way, within the city.
